Abstract
A sludge containing a sparingly soluble metal compound such as nickel carbonate or the like is supplied to an anode compartment or an intermediate compartment of an electrolytic cell provided with an anode compartment and a cathode compartment or with an anode compartment, an intermediate compartment and a cathode compartment each sectioned by a filter membrane or an ion-exchange membrane, and thereafter an electrolytic treatment is conducted by using an insoluble electrode as anode and a usual electrode as cathode to precipitate a metal such as nickel on the cathode. Effective recovery of a metal is attained directly from a sludge by way of electrolysis.
